The EIks' BPnent.

The benefit for Memphis Lodge OF
Elks Sunday night, at the Y. M. II.
A. Hall, was an artistic and financial
success. Some Of those whose names
appeared on the programme failed to
put in an appearance, but the pleas
ing character Of the entertainment
was questioned by none.
A taste OF negro minstrelsy was
cleverly administered by Messrs. Dom
ley and Baker, who furnished several
amusing sketches. The Kenard broth
ere, Messrs. Godshaw aud Winters, dis
played great skill on the banjo, giving
several numbers. V. Fl, Hobson az
forded amusement by clever imper-
sonation OF the old plantation darby.
Prof. Mallette, with Rotations and
songs; Mater Willie Saxby, with a
violin solo; Indian club swinging, by
Harry Menard, and the Remarks and
Brandon in an excellent performance
on the horizontal bar; Col. A. T.
Hayden, in a number OF vocal gems,
beautifully and touchingly rendered ;
Mr.. W. H. Son6eld, in delightfully."-
sung tenor solo, carried the entertain
ment down to Miss Susie Greenwood.
Her selection was from The Daughter
of The Regiment, and raised the au-
dienCe to an exalted pitch OF enthusi-
sstic rapture. In response to an up
roarious recall, she sang "The Maid Of
Dundee" and was presented with a
number of floral tributes. The vast
capabilities Of her sweet and we'll
trained voice were displayed with fine
effect in the two numbers, and served
to lortjfy the position already gained
by the young lady as one Of the most
thoroughly accomplished vocalists OF
the South. Added to this is remark,
able freedom from assumption, aud 8
Willingness to contribute 10 every de
serving cause. These qualities have
established Miss Greenwood as {
veritable pet with the Memphis pub
lie, and her every triumph is to then
a source OF intense qualification. Sht

A ST. LOUIS SUICIDE
TURNS OUT TO BE JAMES Z.
LAU6HNA, OF THIS CITY.
A Mixing OF Baggage Causes Deep
hystery-Causes Which Led
TO the Act.

Fur several days past letter, have
been passing between this city and ST..
Lou in regard TO man who commit.
ted suicide in the latter city on the
4th OF the present month. The corre-
spondeIce was the result OF an INQUIRY
from the Coroner OF st. Louis, directed
to the Singer Saving Machine Com.
pany, about man named Jsmes l..
Laughua The book keeper Of the COM
papy, Mr.. Struggs. replied, giving a
description OF Laughns, and Il CORE
sponded exicily with the dead man.
James + Lsughua lett Memphis on
the Sd OF March for 81. Louis. Arrived
in that city, he went TO a hotel and
registered as James Edwards. For
some reason he decided to change
quartsIs, and at the other houte asked
TO be given room as high up IS pos
sible. This excited the curiosity OF the
clerk, who began TO question him.
lyon want to know too much, replied
guest, and nothing more was said.
Shortly after reaching his room, on The
third floor, Baughna leaped from a
window into the street, and was hor.
ribly mangled. In holding the in
quest, the coroner went through tho
valise Of the suicide. and found clo.h-
ing marked G. W. Compton. A pub.
LEGATION of this fact brought Compton
to the front, and mystery settled
over the mans identity. The authori.
ties soon aiterward learned that the
porter of the baggage room at Cairo
had got vslises mixed, and that one
belonging to Laughna was there. This
led to another Investigation, the cor
respondenCe which followed AID the
clearing up Of identity.
Lsughna came fom Chicago to
Memphis aud secured employment st
the Milhurn lion Works. For some
reason, and against the wishes OF Mr..
MilburD, he resigned his position to
accept one with the Singer Company.
In both places of business he wss well
liked and regarded as a workman Of
superior ability. The only fault to be
found with him was q fondness for
drink, which secured mastery only
occasionally. When in this condition
he became morose and disconnected
with the world in general Added TO
this was a sad fatality in his family,
two children dying within twelve
hours. These troubles, it ia supposed,
led to the taking of his life.

and putting on his shoes and
hat, thought he smelt smoke.
He grabbed bis friends clothing,
rushed into the street and yelled
Sire" A friend escorted him to a
neighboring house, where water was
supplied to quench the fire" Half
an hour afterward the gentleman was
noticed at the Elks' entertainment.
He returned to his quarters about l

Submission.

Following up the indictment of
Mrs. r chaTd Schultz by the grand
jury Saturday, Judge DuBose ordered
9 capias issued that afternoon for her
arrest. This was done, and she gGvs
bond for her appearance Yesterday
morning When arraigned for trial
she admitted that she carried a pistol,
and the Court Immediately sentenced
her to imprisonment in the Work.
house and to pay fine Of $50. For
moment after the sentence was i'm
posed the prisoner sat motionless,
then fell forward in a dead faint.
Resioratives were applied, and the
poor woman was removed to Judge
DuBose's private office, where she
fiuslly came aIourd all right. Tester-
day afternoon the imprisonment
PORTION Of the sentences was RENTED
and Mrs. Schultz released.
Taken ia all its details, the case of
Mrs. Schultz is particularly sad one.
Whether SHINING or not, she has been
subjected tn punishment far exec ed
ing the enormity Of the offense &c
compared with the heinous crimes for
which others have gone free. True
she violated the law in attempting to
take vengeance in her own hands for
the impugning of her character, and
going 0rmed for that purpose. Cir
cumstances alter cases, however. The
facts, 30 far undenied, show that she
resorted TO pistol only after her hus'
band had gone on tour Of investigs-
ton and returned with the startling
information that he believed the
charges and intended leaving her. Is
there wife anywhere with any pre-
